Hi Kay,

That would be lovely if you can send us a picture of you both. Nothing like the love of animals or children, unconditional and straight up. Hope you are feeling a little better and finally managed to get some sleep. It seems to make a lot of difference even if you can only get a little rest. It is a cruel irony that people with PTSD use so much effort to suppress what their minds continue to see and replay for them at any moment but often when they sleep.

Anthony is right, he does toss and turn in his sleep. I usually wake when he is having a real bad dream, then I wake him, telling him it is okay. AND yes he has punched me in his sleep but only the once and he was so remourseful the following morning for something over which he had no control. Bad enough to have a horrible dream, horrible nights sleep and then wake up to find that you had socked your wife.

Anyhow better go get organised for work tomorrow. Take care of you, talk soon.
